Questions

Choosing a treatment.

What if I choose the wrong session?

We check at the start of every appointment. If something else would suit you better, we’ll explain and adjust where we can.

Do I need to be Muslim to have Hijama?

No. Hijama is open to everyone. Some clients book it as a Sunnah practice, others simply for wellbeing. What is Hijama?

Can I talk to someone before booking?

Yes. Ask for a free phone consultation on WhatsApp or call 07466 307267. There’s no charge and no obligation.

Is this a medical assessment?

No. The questions only point you to a sensible starting option. For new, severe or worsening symptoms, speak to your GP or NHS 111.
